Building GreenWhen it comes to updating your home for maximum energy efficiency, learn from the experts!

Jack Hedge and Josh Lloyd from DesignGroup Architects and Phillip Markwood Architects, respectively, and Roger Beck, a Worthington Schools technology education teacher, will share their expertise and suggest ways you can cut your own energy costs.

Presented in partnership with the Healthy Worthington Coalition as part of their Being Green=Being Healthy series.

Beck and Lloyd recently collaborated with Worthington Kilbourne High School students to build the first LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Platinum home in the Midwest, at 258 N. 21st St. This home uses approximately 72 percent less energy than a non-green home.

For nearly 30 years, Jack Hedge has been applying passive solar, energy efficiency and day lighting theory to institutional and corporate facilities. He was recently elevated to the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects for his work in sustainable design.
